Muggeridge Reprise

“I would catch a glimpse of the cross—and suddenly
my heart would stand still. In an instinctive, intuitive way I understood that something more important, more tumultuous, more passionate, was at issue that our good causes, however noble they might be…I should have worn it…It should have been my uniform, my language, my life. I shall have no excuse; I can’t say I didn’t know. I knew from the beginning, and turned away.”
— Malcolm Muggeridge, Jesus Rediscovered
